Delicates

Directed by Ben See-Tho, Kyle Petersen
Colin has hit a new low. Fresh off a breakup, he shuffles through the motions of his life and his laundry. And to make things worse, he just lost one of his favorite socks in the wash.
But when the missing pair is found by the stubborn and quick-witted Megan, the two soon discover they can communicate telepathically whenever they wear their half.
Over the course of a year, we follow the unlikely friendship and strange romance of two lost twenty-somethings who meet foot to foot but never face to face.

Ben See-Tho and Kyle Petersen are lifelong friends who grew up together in the Bay Area. DELICATES came out of their shared love for rom coms, music-driven stories, and New York City.

Ben is a Filipino-Malaysian-German director from the Bay Area who completed his BFA in Film & TV at NYU Tisch. His work has been featured by GRAMMY U and Asian Cinevision. He is the founder of ORANGEJUUZ, a boutique production company. Influenced by his background in dance and music, he welcomes playfulness in his process and embraces unconventionality.

Kyle, who grew up in Westchester, NY before moving to Bay Area in middle school, is a writer and director who completed his BFA in Screenwriting at USC. His writing has been featured on USC Comedy Live and he placed second-round in the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition. He mixes his love of classic comedies with an ambition to tell honest stories about uncertain relationships. DELICATES marks his directorial debut, and he currently works as a motion picture literary assistant at Verve Talent & Literary Agency.
